Nox: I didn't even think about the bath. Don't know why, maybe because there was no way I was sitting down for anyone, I stood up most of the time and when I wasn't standing I was kneeling and leaning over the fitball, I ended up with VERY swollen ankles and grazed knees Also if it's wasn't mentioned I forgot everything in labour! Which is another reason the birth plan was important. And why DP was SUPER important.
